Agalatiya 2
1 Pepepita zaka fotini neluta soti ku Yerusalemu na Banaba, netola Tito noluta naye.
Fourteen years after, I went up again to Jerusalem with Barnabas, and took Titus also with me.
2 Neluta kamba ka civumbuluso nakuleta kwabeve ulaliki unulalika pakati pa amitundu. Nenzo kamba mwakabisila kwabala benzo oneka olemekeza, kuti nionesheshe kuti nuutuka lini lubilo lwatyala.
But I went up according to a divine revelation, and laid before them the gospel which I preach among the gentiles: though privately to those of note, least I should run, or had run in vain.
3 Koma ngakhale Tito, enze naneo ndipo enze Mugiliki, aliye kangamijyiwa kucita mudulidwe.
But even Titus, who was with me, being a Greek, was not compelled to be circumcised;
4 Madoda yaboza mwacisinsi bewela kuzoona mtendele utilinao mwa Kristu Yesu. Benzo laka laka kuti tinkhale akapolo,
and that because of the false brethren clandestinely introduced, who had crept in as spies upon our liberty, which we have in Christ Jesus, that they might bring us into bondage:
5 koma tiliyegonjele kwabeve olo pakanthawi katontho, kuti coonadi ca uthenga cikhalilile mwa mweo.
to whom we yielded no submission, not even for an hour; that the truth of the gospel might continue with you.
6 Koma ao benze oneka ngati olemekezeka (mulimonse mwebenzelili aliye kanthu kwa neo, cifukwa Mulungu aliye sankho)- ao, binikuti, enzeolemekezeka aliye onjezele kanthu kwa neo.
And as to those who seemed to be men of note, whatever they were, it is all one to me, (God accepteth no man's person) for even these eminent persons added nothing more to me.
7 Mosiyana, beona kuti nepasiwa udindo kulalikila uthenga kwaopanda mudulidwe, monga Petulo epasiwa udindo olalikila uthenga kwa amudulidwe.
But on the contrary, seeing that I was intrusted with the gospel of uncircumcision, as Peter was with that of the circumcision;
8 Pakuti Mulungu, esebenza mwa Petulo potumikila kwa ao oduliwa, soti asebenza mwa neo kwa amitundu.
(for He who wrought effectually in Peter as to the apostleship of the circumcision, wrought effectually also in me as to the gentiles: )
9 Pamene Jemusi, Kefasi, na Yohane, enze na mbili ngati sandamila, pebezindikila cisomo cenze pa neo etilola
and knowing the grace which was given to me; James, and Cephas, and John, who seemed to be pillars of the church, gave to me and Barnabas the right hands of fellowship; that we should go to the gentiles, and they to the circumcision.
Only desiring that we would remember the poor: which I also was forward to do.
11 Lyahanu linu Kefasi henza kwa Antioke, Chi ni mu kanina havusu bwe mpaata ya kwe kakuti ava foseze.
But when Peter came to Antioch, I withstood him to the face, because he was indeed to be blamed.
12 Chetanzi vamwi vakwame ni va seni ku sika kwa Jakovo, Kefasi avali kulya ni va Machava. Kono cwale ava vakwame ha va keza, cha zimana mi ni kuva vutavuleni ni va Machava. Cha vali ku tite ava vakwame va vali kusaka mupato.
For before certain men came from James, he did eat with the gentiles; but when they were come, he withdrew and separated himself, fearing those of the circumcision.
13 Mane ni vungi bya Majuda ni va kopana ne Kefasi mu kulinyemona. Ikalavo ivaali kuti nanga Barabasi chava yembulwilwe ku linuneka kwaavo.
And the rest of the Jews dissembled also with him; so that Barnabas too was carried away with their dissimulation.
14 Kono hani vona kuti ka ve chilile vusakusima bye linzwi, ni na waamba ne Kefasi ha vusu byaavo voonse, “Haiva mu Vajuda mi ni mu hala che ikute lya vantu va Lichava vulyo kwaanda a ikute lya Vajuda, mu woola ku hambiliza vule va Lichava kuhala ili Vajuda?
But when I saw that they walked not uprightly according to the truth of the gospel, I said to Peter before them all, ---If thou, who art a Jew, livest sometimes after the manner of the gentiles, and not like the Jews, why dost thou now in a manner compel the gentiles to judaize?
15 Iswe tu maJuda cha ku pepya mi yisini “ve Lichava va tenda ziivi”
We, who are Jews by birth, and not sinners of the gentiles,
16 mwi zive kuti ka kwina na ngati wu mwina yeta njolozwe cha musevezi wa mulawo. Ni hakuvavulyo, va njolozwa che tumelo ya Jesu Kereste. Tu vakezi che tumelo kwa Jesu Kereste cwale kuti tu njolozwe che tumelo kwa Kereste mi yi sinyi cha musevezi wa mulawo kakwina nyama ye te ni njolozwe.
knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by faith in Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Christ Jesus, that we might be justified by faith in Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified.
17 Kono heva, ni tusaka Reeza kuti atu njoloze ka Kereste, tu liwane na swe tu veene kuti tu va yenzalivi, kana Kereste u swanela ku va mutanga we chiivi? Sanzi ku ve vulyo!
But if while we seek to be justified by Christ, we ourselves also are found sinners, is Christ therefore the minister of sin?
18 Heva ni zaaka isempo yangu cha kuya cha mulawo, Isempo ichini va sinyi kaale, ni livonahaza kuti ni mucholi wa mulawo.
God forbid. And if I build again the same things which I demolished, I shew myself a transgressor: for I through the law am dead to the law,
19 Ku zwila ku mulawo ni va fwi ku mulawo, ili kuti ni haale che Ireeza.
that I might live unto God.
20 Ni va konkotelwa vulyo ni Kereste. Kayisili me ni haala kono Kereste njo haala kwangu. Vuhalo vuni haala linu mwi nyama ni vuhala che tumelo ya Mwana Reeza, Uzo ya va ni suni ni kuliha yiye mwine kwangu.
I am crucified with Christ; yet I live, though no longer I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me, and gave up himself for me.
21 Ke se ni manise chisemo che Reeza, chokuti heva va lukite vavali kuhala mulawo, linu Kereste ni ku sena za va fwili.
I do not frustate the grace of God: for if righteousness be by the law, then Christ died in vain.
